More from Twitter
Massively grateful to everyone who took time out to read, comment & share these across the year. I really appreciate you.

2. Breaking-in – the job connector
The interview job connector thread. If you're currently job hunting, please post the industry/role & someone who is already in the field can give you tailored tips ++ share their experiences \U0001f4aa\U0001f3fd\U0001f4aa\U0001f3fd

3. Breaking-in – book smart vs. street
Anyone who has ever worked a corporate job will tell you where you studied means very little.

Education doesn't guarantee ability.
4. Personal Finance – MEGA Property
The Reserve Bank cut the repo rate by 25bps & just like clockwork, the rats who are paid to sell houses are encouraging people to go out & buy

The usual "influencers"/ estate agents/ mortgage brokers/ banks/ loan sharks/ excavator salesmen
Here's a useful MEGA property thread:
Happy New Year everybody!

Software terms are confusing right?!

4/ On consistency
If, EVERYDAY, you:

- did 10 burpees
- read 20 pages of a book
- saved $10
That would probably put you in the top quartile for health, knowledge and wealth.
Consistency is extremely undervalued.
